IN A TIME OF PLAGUE

In light of California Governor Gavin Newsom's "shelter in place" orders, and in consideration of the guidelines set forth by the CDC to combat the spread of COVID-19, all requests for on-premises investigations will be put on hold until otherwise deemed safe to resume normal daily operations. Additionally, PPI's 2020 "Science and The Beyond" presentations scheduled at local public libraries and learning institutions in the month of October have been postponed. We are currently considering a "distance education" version of our presentations to offer instead, details of which will be made available in the coming months. In the meantime, please remember to responsibly socially distance yourself, wear your mask in public, and safeguard your health and the wellbeing of others. We wish all of you the very, very best.

skeptical inquiry

Debunking: Frequently misused to refer to the search for practical causes of paranormal events and anomalies, the term "debunking," is reserved for the unmasking of bunco, or "bunk," those paranormal confidence tricks used by charlatans to swindle customers out of their money. The preeminent "debunker" of the 20th century was James Randi, a former stage magician turned investigator bent on exposing unscrupulous mentalists, prestidigitators, fortune tellers, spoon benders, psychics, and mystics. In 1996, Randi created the James Randi Educational Foundation (JREF) for skeptical enquiry, and famously offered one million U.S. dollars to the first person who could demonstrate a valid supernatural ability while undergoing scientific testing. To date, no one has passed the first level of the test.

During the evidence review phase following an investigation of a private residence, Pacific Paranormal Investigations discovered an anomalous image that warranted further study. PPI investigators spent many hours analyzing video footage in order to determine the cause of this anomaly. This video contains the original video footage from this investigation. PPI presents this video as part of a our ongoing public outreach and education program.
